This is what's been updated v1.5.5:

    • Red: Invalid lap

This update contains small and large changes to the Lovely Dashboard. Did this deserve a major version number? I don't know...

This is what's been updated v1.5.4:

  • Engine Icon now has two tone color to make it more apparent when the ignition is on and when the engine is running.
  • Paging on the Multi Function Modules has been tweaked to make the current active page dot more visible (make the dot bigger).
  • iRacing: Added support for Lap Based Races in iRacing (Session Info & Fuel Calculator)
  • iRacing: Fixed a bug in the iRacing Fuel Calculator where it instead just displayed the avg lap consumption
  • iRacing: Replaced SoF with iRatingGainEstimation in the top left.
  • New Action D had been added which toggles the current Lap Time Delta on and off.
  • External Settings file has been added. You can now control certain aspects of the Dashboard & Overlay.

On a side note, I've also re-structured the GitHub repository. It now only contains the un-complied source code for the Dashboard & Overlay. You can download the compiled and ready-to-use files directly from the release page.

Here's a quick fix for two longstanding issues.

What's new in Lovely Dashboard v1.5.2

  • PIT LIMITER has been confined to the main Center Gauge, so now you can continue viewing the information on the rest of the dash when PIT LIMITER is engaged - on all screens.
  • REV REDLINE flashing UI. Every time it flashed the entire display would dim. This may be just an issue of underpowered displays (USB), but none the less, it was annoying. I tested a few variations, and saw little to no dimming when using a slightly darker red color.

Weee... some minor updates.

  • I had removed the RPM rev limit on the gear display. My mistake. I put it back now.
  • Added the track name on the Track Map screen
  • AND I re-re-re-updated the properties which I use to determine which time to take into account (Last vs Best) and when to hide the fuel calculator. (tip: the more I delve into SimHubAPI, the more handy properties I find).

Lot's of small improvements went into this release. Here's a list of them all:

UI

  • Updated: Resized and repositioned all the alert popups (Limiter, TC, BB, ABS, MAP). I found that while driving, I could not clearly see when I made a change to these settings. They are now positioned front and centre, still colour coded.
  • NEW: Added throttle and Brake inputs. they are positioned in the Central widget, right under the gear panel.

Fixes

  • Reordered the Status Flags based on priority.
  • "Insufficient Data" for the refuel screen now correctly hides only when there's available data.
  • Refuel data now correctly take into account Last or Best lap time
  • Fixed Driver Relative & Standing display
  • Fixed a global bug (not really a bug, I just thought I was being smart and did something stupid) on the timetables

LED Profile

  • Updated the rev lights limits. They now behave more like rev lights should, unlike before when they looked like xmas decorations
  • Updated the Pit Limiter lights to reflect the new blue colour of the Dashboard
  • Small tweaks all around (translation: I do not remember anything else I did)
